How Inflation Might Explain Large-Scale Anisotropy
Brett McInnes
Several recent observational analyses have suggested the possible existence of a large-scale anisotropy in our Universe. It is often thought that this would contradict the inflatio…
Intrinsic Torsion, Extrinsic Torsion, and the Hubble Parameter
Brett McInnes
We study the intrinsic and extrinsic torsions (defined by analogy with the intrinsic and extrinsic curvatures) of the spatial sections of torsional spacetimes. We consider two poss…
Superradiance in the Bulk Protects Quantum State Evolution of Rapidly Rotating Matter on the Boundary
Brett McInnes
It has been argued that the rate at which the interior of an AdS black hole evolves is dual to the rate of evolution of the (quantum state of the) strongly coupled matter on the bo…
Evidence that the Rate of Evolution of a Black Hole Interior Has a Holographic Dual
Brett McInnes
A ``large'' AdS black hole can attain equilibrium with its own Hawking radiation, and in that condition it is thought to be dual to a strongly coupled field theory, also at equilib…
